Honours for excellence in football continue to be announced, with a particular focus on nominations for the prestigious trophy of 2025. Luis Enrique, PSG coach, is one of five contenders for the Cruyff Trophy, a prize awarded at the Ballon d’Or ceremony in September. He competes with other renowned coaches such as Enzio Maresca, Arne Slot, Hansi Flick and Antonio Conte, highlighting the strong competition in this area. These appointments demonstrate the quality of the performance and strategies deployed by these different coaches over the past season.

At the same time, nominations for the 2025 Club of the Year trophy were also announced. Unlike last year, Real Madrid, winner of the trophy last year, is not among the favourites this time. The five competing clubs are FC Barcelona, Chelsea, Liverpool, Botafogo and PSG, which won the Champions League. This selection reflects the continued dominance of these teams on the European stage and their ability to maintain an exceptional level of play throughout the season.

Finally, ten goaltenders were appointed for the Yashin 2025 trophy, succeeding Emiliano Martinez. Gianluigi Donnarumma is considered the favourite to win this prize, thanks to his remarkable performances in the Champions League. He could thus match the record of Emiliano Martinez, the only goalkeeper to have won the trophy twice, in 2023 and 2024. These appointments highlight the crucial importance of goalkeepers in the success of a team and the recognition of their individual talent.
